Alrite I dunno wut happened, it just happened outa nowhere, when I go into mspaint and try to save as a jpeg file, it doesn't have that option, i can manually type it in, BUT all it is is saving a bmp with a jpeg extention, so the file is super big.. i can OPEN jpegs.. but can't save as jpeg.. anyone?

 

Has saving jpegs ever been an option for MS Paint? I thought it only saves bmps. At least that's how my copy is (I don't use it much though, so I can't really say).

 

thats just how it is man, you can't save a jpg on paint, only bmp.

get photoshop if you need a graphic editor

 

I know nothing about MS paint, but I know even photoshop wont let you save as a jpeg if you have multiple layers, which often get created when you edit the photo. I have to select "flatten layers" or something like that before I can save as a jpeg.

 

ok this feature USED to be available.. it worked before! it just isn't there anymore.. it used to be on the list of file types. it's just not there anymore.. and i DO have photoshop. it's just for simple things like screen shots and shit it's real quick to use paint, rather than waiting for photoshop to load up whcih takes froever

 

Sounds like you might have recently installed MS Office. Try some of these links:
